Pushpa 2: The Rule, the much-anticipated sequel directed by Sukumar has set the global box office ablaze, becoming the fastest Indian film to cross ₹500 crore in just three days. Released worldwide on December 5, the Allu Arjun starrer has redefined commercial cinema with its record-breaking run.
The opening day collections of ₹294 crore were the highest for an Indian film and by the second day, the film had raked in ₹449 crore, surpassing industry benchmarks set by blockbusters like RRR, Baahubali 2, and KGF 2. Its Hindi version even outperformed Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan.
The news of this unprecedented milestone was confirmed by Mythri Movie Makers, the production house behind the film, on their social media handles. At a film’s success meet, producer Naveen Yerneni expressed his joy. “We are thrilled to announce that Pushpa 2 is the fastest Indian film to hit ₹500 crore. The response has been overwhelming, and this is just the beginning,” he said.
Building on the phenomenal success of Pushpa: The Rise (2019), the sequel takes the saga of Pushpa Raj to new heights. Featuring Rashmika Mandanna, Fahadh Faasil, and a stellar supporting cast, with music by Devi Sri Prasad and stunning visuals by Miroslaw Kuba Brozek, Pushpa 2: The Rule has set a new benchmark for Indian cinema, continuing its reign in theatres worldwide.
